No, he is not a troll. His doubt makes an opportunity for debate that
encourages exposing and putting forward further evidence. Whether it convinces
him or not remains irrelevant to other people who witness the same evidence.
Whether you should bury the hatchet (kf) or not is up to you. If you don't
like troll-feeding, then you can set the kf to suit your reading preferences,
but what doesn't suit your scope doesn't make the divide between "troll"
and "not troll" for everyone else. The word troll is very offensive because
it's usually ascribed to the Earth's scum (people like Gary Stewart, Scott
Douglas, Ray Lopez, Bill Weisgerber and others).
